Forget about your Oculus. Let’s go back to the time we needed to add actual pictures in the spectacles on your nose to get the 3D experience. In this remarkable book the specs went MIA but this doesn’t have to spoil the fun. In 1938 this book was A-game for propagators of a certain idea of how the German renaissance should look. With photos by Hitler’s official photographer Heinrich Hoffmann, who practiced with him privately to up his sway with rehearsed hand gestures and angles to seem more influential, this book may seem very ahead of its time. However stereoscopes were very much the rage from the 1850’s on.
